So, what recommendations and warnings from those who know? Please keep it simple, because I am not up on the latest hardware jargon!

If you must stay with Windows I'd suggest shopping around for an Intel i7 based machine rather than AMD which are slower and run hotter than Intel.
Windows 7 is a better option too. The touchscreen might be "cool" but that's about it.
The battery life is pretty poor as well. There are far better notebooks than this one.
